Speaking of piracy...Here's a letter from a MacAddict reader in July's 
edition in their "Letters" section...
I quote...

"I had to do it. Microsoft is suing a local software company for 
illegally copying its software. On the local news a Microsoft 
representative gave out a 1-800 number to report instances of piracy.

So, I called it and told them I wanted to report a rather large case of 
piracy. When they eagerly asked what it was, I informed them that 90 
percent of the PC's in the world are using pirated versions of the 
Macintosh operating system.

The funny part is that they didn't simply hang up on me. They insisted 
someone was paying me to make the call."
- Brian Duffy
